Yeah, I want to make it clear that I don't actually believe this is "the end of the internet". However, if this goes through as planned, it will be the end of personal liberty and privacy in the EU with regards to internet usage. Whereas previously some ISPs/platforms chose to store your data (leavi...

The EU's Article 13 has passed, and the greatest asset to human liberty has been seized by the European Commission, supported by your nominated representatives. Anyone who owns a "popular" website or online platform (note that "popular" has not been defined) will be responsible for all content that ...

For what it's worth, I've always been taught that "5,890,000,000" doesn't give information on how many significant figures are present (other than that it's at least 3 and at most 10), and that a qualifier is necessary (e.g. "3.s.f.", "to the nearest million", etc.) to give this information.

The bottom right of each image spoils it. :V No, it doesn't - the bottom right of each image is key to adding to the weirdness.

You're the GM. Of cour...

Well that was an odd tournament all around. Italy and Netherlands didn't qualify, Germany knocked out in the group stages, Brazil, Argentina, Spain, and Portugal knocked out in the second round; meanwhile Croatia having their best ever World Cup performance making it to the final, and the Battle of ...

So, two things happened in London today. There was this, which according to the BBC is a "small" free speech rally attended by "hundreds" of people: https://imgoat.com/uploads/8ffe9a587b/123938.jpeg And there was this, which according to the BBC is a "large scale" protest by "thousands" of people: h...
